I did it! I woke up at 6 a.m. this morning to workout and I loved it. I wasn’t working in the morning because I didn’t want to wake up so early but waking up a little bit earlier is better for now. I had forgotten how good exercising first thing in the morning feels. It was so much nicer than working out in the afternoon. It was still very hot and a had three fans in the room but it didn’t feel like it was over 100 degrees like it does in the afternoon. I also had so much energy since I had just woken up from sleeping almost eight hours that I was able to put in a lot of energy and do my best.

Today I did a Kickboxing video, which I don’t usually do on Wednesday. I normally do Yoga on Wednesday because I’m tired and don’t really feel like jumping around too much, but starting the morning with Kickboxing was great. It really woke me up!

Thanks to this new morning routine I had a very good day; I was ready for work earlier, I was very productive and more alert at work, and I was even in a better mood. I thought I was going to get tired at work because I woke up earlier, but I didn’t.

The best part is that now that I am tired, I have time to sit down, write a little and just relax. I don’t have to force myself to go to walk or do Yoga, Pilates or any on those. I love that I have time to write again. Lately, I hadn’t had so much time to write at the end of the day, but now I will have more time so I hope I can start posting more frequently again, which really makes me happy.

I’m an aspiring writer still looking for exactly what I want to write about, with a lot of creativity, imagination and desire to write. I studied Writing and Rhetoric at Syracuse University where I explored many different sides of writing through my classes and extracurricular activities in order to narrow my search for an identity as a writer. I have written for Citrus TV Noticias and La Voz magazine, both of which gave me the chance to explore different mediums in which to write in. Through Citrus TV Noticias I also gained experience in translating from English to Spanish and vice versa, which is also something that I would be interested in working on since I am fluent in both of these languages. I was also an intern at Syracuse University Press where I got hands on experience in what goes into actually editing and publishing a book. Through out the last four years I have faced a lot of challenges, which helped chape the person I am today. After being in a tragic car accident, being in comma, having a Traumatic Brain Injury, and being in therapy for over a year, I am a new me, willing to face challenges and knowing how to deal with them. I want to write about my accident and life after it to help others, show them it can be done and help in any way I can.
